Vivid Underscores de Keith «The Man» Mansfield de 1977, un must pour les fans du Voyage de Brian Bennett.

Vivid Underscores de Keith «The Man» Mansfield de 1977, un must pour les fans du Voyage de Brian Bennett. Appel à tous les diggers, DJ, fans de MF DOOM... Vivid Underscores facilite le sample. Ce LP de library music est juste à couper le souffle. «High Velocity» donne le ton avec ses cors agressifs, ses guitares wah-wah, sa ligne de basse funky et son refrain de synthé bancal. Si bon et si hypnotique que Memphis Bleek a juste eu à glisser l'intro inquiétante et épuisée de "What You Think of That" avec Jay-Z. L'intro du menaçant «Omen» a été échantillonné par 7L & Esoteric pour leur classique «So Glorious», mais la piste entière de 5 minutes est un chef-d'oeuvre de mini-drame, que seul Mansfield pourrait créer. Même s'il s'agit d'un mélange de thèmes courts "Vivid Underscores" est toujours entièrement écoutable du début à la fin. Ce n’est pas quelque chose qui peut être dit de tous les albums de library music et il parvient toujours à se servir de ressources riches pour garder même les sampleurs les plus exigeants.

THE definitive collection of one of dance music's most enduring and infamous left-field anthems, across 2 x 12"s and 1 x bonus 33rpm 7"!The collaborative team of Arthur Russell and Steve D'Acquisto crafted some of the best wonky disco not disco cuts during their short lifespan and 'Is It All Over My Face' is one of their crowning glories. Collected here, to celebrate the 40th anniversary of this gloriously weird record, are all the best versions from then, and now. Even a quick dig in the archive yielded some treats with the male and female acapella appearing for the first time EVER, featuring on a specially 33rpm cut 7" alongside Larry Levan's promo 7" mixes. Also, the instrumental version has never been released before, but it is here for this very special limited package in it's full, unedited glory. This is one for the heads, an essential do-not-miss RSD special edition for those who are still 'love dancin' 4 decades later, housed in a classic special West End disco-bag. Don't sleep!Produced in collaboration with Sony / Above Board distribution, 2020.
Along with other reissues for The Ultimates, The Topics and Ricardo Marrero, P-vine has been steadily reissuing the hard-to-find funk and soul gems on the short-lived 70s label TSG, and this latest reissue for Spice's 1976 record Let There Be Spice is of no exception and is packed with seasoned heat. It's a record that complements and blurs the lines of soul, funk and disco, and was once so rare that not even the band knew of its existence. Only in recent times have we been able to put together a picture of a group growing up in The Bronx with the burning desire to perform and light up the stage.Tracks like "Everything Is You", "Don't Fight It" and "Fool In Love" are glorious examples of the heavenly soul sound the group construct with harmonising waves of soothing vocals dancing together with warm string sections. "Happy Music" and the following "Do It Nice" up the tempo and show off another side to their sound as the songs twist and turn through proggy synthesizer solos and funk guitar rhythms. P-vine can't wait to deliver this exciting release and keep the fire burning strong for this exceptional album.
